Re: Kamra Airbase attacked

Aah yes we are it is evident that you are totally ignoring the good and bad Taliban story and also the Mullah Omar factor. What do that indicate, please enlighten me. While we are at it how many captured Taliban in Afghanistan have confessed to being supported by Paksitan. Any concrete proof?

How many drone or land attacks have American forces carried out against TTP in Afghanistan. Any numbers any proof. While the American can trace Taliban and carry out drone attacks in FATA it is extremely difficult, nigh impossible for them to trace TTP in Afghanistan because TTP is very sophisticated and American technology cant trace it.

OK got it.

So yes you are finally getting somewhere and maybe realising that ground relaities are much different to what you hope or want us to believe.

I haven’t ignored it. I have already addressed. If you had read my previous posts. The Good Taliban are those that can still be reconciled and brought back into the Afghan government. Those Taliban are the ones who joined the insurgency out of anger of the incompetence and corruption of the current Afghan government. They can be goaded back into mainstream Afghan society. The remainder are the ones who have no chance of reconciliation. US, Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia have made peace overtures to the Taliban to come to some sort of political reconciliation. There is nothing wrong with that. US and Afghan Forces cannot simply kill their way to victory, political framework is needed to achieve peace.

So that addresses the Mullah Omar part of your argument.

Next. As for Pakistan supporting Taliban. Google is your best friend. BBC News - Pakistani agents ‘funding and training Afghan Taliban’
Enjoy

As for Drone and Land Attacks. http://www.understandingwar.org/sites/default/files/Afghanistan_Report_1.pdf

That explains why US withdrew from the sparsely populated Kunar and Nuristan areas to concentrate on more populated areas. As for drone strikes, they are not needed, since US controls the Air Space and Apache Gunships are more than enough to deal with these Taliban holed up there. As for number of attacks launched by US in Kunar and Nurisitan province, that informaiton is classified. But you can watch this documentary which shows US forces fighting in Kunar.

What I have realized that you guys have ZERO proof of Americans supporting the TTP and have concocted this absurd conspiracy theory to explain why Pakistan’s Jihadists have turned their guns on Pakistan.

Ok got it.

I am actually disappointed. I really wanted to believe you guys. I was certain that you might have some proof of American or Indian complicity with TTP, like captured fighters confessing, cellphones with numbers to American handlers, anything that is tangible. But alas, nothing, zip, nada.

Thanks for a great conversation. Just reinforced my views.
